My daughter dropped off the kids yesterday and I decided to do a little landscaping. I had my grandson pull this little tree. It took him about 2 hours with the ripper tooth. I'm not sure he understood what the ripper tooth was supposed to do at first, so it took a little coaching, but he...

I have a whole drawer full of right hand work gloves and not one damn left glove to be found.🤬🤬 Am I nuts, or is this a problem for anyone else? I specifically keep those cheap Jersey Gloves on hand because I can awkwardly wear a "righty" glove on my left hand. All theories...

I am posting these pics for Fried1765 as he is having issues posting pics. Here is his new ripper tooth in all its glory. I must say it looks Badass....

Well the wife went up to the cottage this weekend and sure enough, there was no water pressure. We are on a well of course, and I am a Citidiot, so I have no experience with a well. My Google-Fu skills have given me a basic understanding of how a well pump works, but I'm looking for some...

Back story for those unfamiliar: I stopped at McDonalds to get some food and it was Drive-Thru only. So I had to put my ROPS bar down and about halfway through unscrewing those damn ROPS bolts, the sky opens up and soaks me. I decided to get some Lynch pins and turn the end down and make the...

I usually just keep the ripper tooth in the bed of my truck....No problem, so no solution is needed.........BUT..... As I was admiring my fork storage install, it hits me....Hey dummy, Why don't you make a cool ripper tooth pocket for the trailer???? To the plasma cutter Batman!!!!! The first...

I have been meaning to add pallet fork storage for a little while, and since I have 123,976 things to "get too" I have been putting it off. Well in the meantime, I was putting the forks in my truck bed the other day and yep, I dinged the truck. Nothing major, but I was still pissed. I had...

One of my first projects after getting my tractor was to modify my ballast box. I decided to fill it with a combo of my trucks clapped out Dual Mass Flywheel and concrete. (y) Then I welded on a bunch of tool holders made from the scrap pile and a few purchased 2" receivers for mounting...

Here's a pic and video of my grandson stacking blocks on top of a bucket using the backhoe this weekend. My SIL jokingly says I'm "ruining him", because now he doesn't want to play with his toys tractors; When they pass the local Kubota dealer on the way to school, he points to the tractors and...

When my grandson comes over, he always wants to play on the tractor and this weekend was no different. I have found out that letting him play on it makes me a better Tractor'er, because every time I get on it after he gets done monkeying around on it, something is amiss. So I have gotten quite...

First off, I have no dog in this fight and I do not know the owner and I am not looking to buy it. My daughter said "Hey dad, theres a Kubota for sale just like yours with a backhoe for 37K. Is that a good price?" Well I went up to the store and looked on the bulletin board and saw this. I...

Hi all, my SIL owns a tree service and he just called me about buying a new Bobcat MT 100. (after he saw how much easier life is with my tractor...hahahahah😂) He currently owns no machines or attachments, only a "Big Ole" wood chipper and 2 dump trailers. I know just enough about machines in...

Let me first say that I did finally figure it out, so this post is mostly a resource to help someone out in the future. So I pull the tractor our of the garage, so I can access my toolbox and work on the truck this Sunday. Its starts just fine and I park it in the driveway. (luckily not in the...

My SIL needed some stumps removed, so I got to use my ripper tooth a few weeks ago. The first one below took about 2.5 hours.

I don't really have a strong need for a chain saw carrier on a normal basis, but I wanted one still. Lets visit the scrap pile and see what we can come up with. Boys and girls, we will again employ the Ansatz method, as I have no idea how/if this will work. It's a build on the fly with no...

OK....I hesitate to post this....but since I'll never actually meet any of you...what the hell. My cottage is 4 hours north of my house, and they tend to get a lot more snow up there than I do here. I have a plow for my truck, but the problem is when I get on the freeway at speeds above 65...

I'm not sure if I am only one, but I was having a hard time connecting, and to some extent disconnecting, my grapple hoses due to the downward angle at which they were installed.( I forgot to take a before pic, so pic 1 is my only before reference pic) The other thing that bothered me was that...

I've been kicking around the idea of ordering a landscape rake. I have small gravel driveway at the cottage and a small area that needs a once over to clean it up a little. Last year, I box bladed the drive, and for the life of me I could not get the "lines" where the box blade ends to smooth...

So I had one more filter to protect, so off we go.... After some initial measurements, I came up with the basic shape that I wanted to use. I must have made an error in my measuring or got things backwards in my head, because I thought for sure the right rear part needed a cut out to avoid...
